Summer Camp at the Queens Zoo (3rd- 5th graders)
Camp Description
Zoo Explorers: Wild by Design
Become a wildlife problem solver! From exhibit design to finding ways for animals to safely navigate urban environments, this camp invites you to think like an engineer, architect, and conservation scientist. We'll use design thinking and creative problem-solving skills to tackle conservation issues, both locally and globally. We'll look to nature for strategies to solve these challenges through up close encounters, hands-on activities, and exhibit exploration.
This camp is for children entering 3rd, 4th, or 5th grade in the fall of 2025. Price is per week. Sign up for Zoo Explorers: Forces of Nature AND Zoo Explorers: Wild by Design for two different camp experiences!
Price: $558 members / $620 regular (5 day camp)
Extended care: $180 members / $200 regular (5 day)
